PB tool: bulk check files against VirusTotal and MHR

Post by firace »

My new little project (as a PB developer and former Cert analyst I had an urgent need for this!):

Purpose: Instantly check up to 16 files on VirusTotal and MHR

Written in PB, HTML/CSS/JS, and PHP

It would be good then to have an option to send an analysis report to the AV for all false positives.
In order to flood those who are badly doing their job.

I'm kidding but false alarms can sometimes cause as much troubles as a real infection :wink:

Good suggestion! Will look into it.

I've just added a link to the program homepage to the first post.

It would be nice if it accepts multiple files as command line arguments...

Code: Select all

Mscan.exe "D:\SFTPMSI.exe" "D:\ugrep.exe" ...

Imho. if you want to whitelist your programm just contact the 3 big half sane AVs anything else is just a waste of time.
The crappy AVs will usually adjust themselfes to not look even more silly...

Apparently the little AVs just use the big AVs database anyway (maybe officially, maybe unofficially). I've read stories from developers who said the little ones always change soon after the big ones whitelist their apps.

This should work in the latest version (1.02.145b) :)
